Montana State Park Rules

Montana State Parks does not have a rule stating that one cannot use a metal detector, but if someone finds something, they cannot take it.

The Administrative Rule of Montana reads:

Property Disturbance

No persons may destroy, deface, injure, remove, or otherwise damage any natural or improved property or willfully or negligently cut, destroy, or mutilate any tree, shrub, or plant, or any geological, historical, or archaeological feature, not including flowers, berries, cones, or fallen dead wood.

Disturbance of the topsoil cover is prohibited. No person may buy garbage, dig for worms, or allow pets to dig hole.
